Careers

Who We Are

At Tornado Combustion, we’re one of the foremost experts in combustion, and you can see that experience in our team.

We’re a great place to work, if we do say so ourselves, and it means that we have some of the most experienced individuals working in the industry today.

You can’t build a company on only experience. We recognize that the industry will never evolve and improve if new blood doesn’t get a chance to learn and innovate for themselves, which is why we take on apprentices at our shops in Calgary, AB and Alleyton, TX.

Some of the tradespeople we hire to work with us full-time and take on apprentices in include:

  • Fabricators
  • Welders
  • Pipefitters
  • Industrial Painters

Why We’re a Great Place to Work

You don’t get a team as experienced as ours by being a bad employer.

We’ve worked hard to establish the kind of work environment that people are happy to be in.

Our Company Culture

Fostering Real Team Connections

Our staff social club helps foster team spirit. Each location plans its own activities, but sometimes we fly the Texas team to Alberta for full team-bonding events.

Some of our favourites over the years have been:

  • Our annual Christmas party
  • Family parties
  • Monthly BBQs in the summer
  • Annual Games Day
  • Hockey Pools
  • NCAA Final Four Pool
  • Our Golf League
  • Annual IWWD Luncheon for female employees

Equal Opportunities

It’s easy to say you’re an equal opportunity employer, but we’re not the ones saying it.

We’re actually certified by the Women Business Enterprises Canada Council (WBE Canada) as a women’s business enterprise, which means we are at least 51% owned, managed, and controlled by Canadian women.
